Fascinating Fact:

In baking, if a recipe needs ¾ of a cup of sugar and you only have a ¼ cup scoop, you need to fill it three times.

In KS2 Maths, Year 4 pupils learn more about fractions by finding equivalent values, comparing fractions, and using them to solve practical problems in everyday contexts.

  • Mixed Number: A number made from a whole number and a fraction, such as 1 1/2.
  • Proper Fraction: A fraction where the numerator is smaller than the denominator, like 3/5.
